"Not since LotR and the Chronicles or Narnia has there been such an epic read."
Try Stephen King: Dark Tower. There's an Epic read if there ever was one.
Teaching precalculus and calculus at the college level I have found that the TI-83 and the other TI's that are similar (I don't care for the ones that have the function buttons, I find them damn annoying) are more than enough calculator for people who want to get through calculus. Yeah you could get a calculator that does other fancy shit, but when it comes down to it, if you're studying something that requires a deeper level of math, you needot know that math like the back of your hand, with or without a calculator. On a secondary note, this calculator is also particularly useful for the many students who have to take statistics courses as well. It can do just about anything a student would want to with a given data set... if only more students would read the manual they could save themselves a lot of time when trying to calculate a standard deviation or something else equally annoying.
